Kochi: The Almond Board of California has launched a health awareness campaign focused on effective weight management. Speaking at the campaign, actress Soha Ali Khan emphasized that effective weight management is not about severe starvation or completely skipping meals, but rather about developing sustainable habits. Instead of completely eliminating favorite foods, one should include nutrient-rich alternatives in their diet. Incorporating protein-rich options like eggs, paneer, almonds, and legumes into daily meals helps boost metabolism and control cravings. While snacks consumed between main meals help maintain energy levels, it is crucial to choose options that satisfy hunger while enhancing focus. Mindful choices, such as fruits and California almonds, serve as excellent options. The campaign also points out that replacing sugary drinks with fruit-infused water and swapping traditional desserts for fresh fruits can kickstart healthy lifestyle changes.
